I just noticed that the jqxTreeGrid control pages exactly how I’d expect the jqxDataTable control to page when grouping is enabled. In my mind, the only difference between these two controls is that the parent row has data for each of the columns, whereas the group header row only has the name of the field that’s being grouped by and the value of the field for the specific group.
Do you still feel like this isn’t a valid feature request?
I’m left postulating about faking the grouping myself using a jqxTreeGrid… just with a drop-down of column names for grouping instead of the drag-and-drop interface. I’d need to manage the JSON data myself to make it work, of course. Might even be able to use Conditional Formatting to render the header row in a way that actually looks like a header row.
This is starting to sound possible, and that’s kind of scary. Please let me know if I’ve gone crazy.
